Then, to be decided current potential V2 (in the present embodiment less than above-mentioned with the output voltage values of this D/A converter 62 from CPU61 output, the minimum of a value of output voltage (earthing potential)) data signal and data stabilization signal (establishing the state of exporting the data stabilization signal among Fig. 5 is the Lo state) are in D/A converter 62, in D/A converter 62, after input above-mentioned the fixing time of process (the t time Fig. 5) of this data stabilization signal, just determine its output, export above-mentioned data signal and be transformed to the aanalogvoltage of simulation (in Fig. 5, the state that to export aanalogvoltage (except that deciding current potential V2) is the Lo state, exporting decide current potential V2 state be the Hi state).Because the output of this aanalogvoltage, waveform generation portion 64 utilizes current-voltage conversion amplifier 64b, the first waveform P1 that produce, output drops to minimum level from middle current potential Vb.Replenish, determine before the output of D/A converter 62, receive printing signal from CPU61, drive IC 69 is selected the piezoelectric-actuator 21 corresponding with the nozzle 14 that should spray ink droplet, and the switching transistor corresponding with this selected piezoelectric-actuator 21 is set at on-state, and allows this state proceed to have produced after the 5th waveform P5.
Then, after having produced the above-mentioned first waveform P1, from CPU61 output will with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 as above-mentioned data signal of decide current potential V2 to D/A converter 62, like this, 64 generations of waveform generation portion, export the second waveform P2 that keeps minimum level.
Secondly, to be decided the value of current potential V2 (the present embodiment greater than above-mentioned with the output voltage of D/A converter 62 from CPU61 output, the maximum V1 of output voltage) data signal and data stabilization signal have been determined after the output of D/A converter 62 in D/A converter 62, the output aanalogvoltage.Because the output of this aanalogvoltage, waveform generation portion 64 utilizes the 3rd waveform P3 that its current-voltage conversion amplifier 64b produces, output rises to maximum potential from minimum level.
Produced after above-mentioned the 3rd waveform P3, to be decided the data signal of current potential V2 to D/A converter 62 as above-mentioned with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 from CPU61 output, since this signal, the 4th waveform P4 that waveform generation portion 64 produces, maximum potential is kept in output.
Then, from CPU61 output will be with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 data signal of minimum of a value and data stabilization signal to D/A converter 62, determined after the output of D/A converter 62 the output aanalogvoltage.Because the output of this aanalogvoltage, waveform generation portion 64 is by the 5th waveform P5 that its current-voltage conversion amplifier 64b produces, output drops to intermediate potential from maximum potential.
Produced after above-mentioned the 5th waveform P5, to be decided the data signal of current potential V2 to D/A converter 62 as above-mentioned with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 from CPU61 output, like this, waveform generation portion 64 drives between the P up to producing again, exports above-mentioned intermediate potential Vb always.
At this, the action of above-mentioned ink gun H is described.If by above-mentioned waveform generation portion 64 the first waveform P1 that produces, export be applied to piezoelectric-actuator 21, piezoelectric layer 23 is just because the electric field that is produced in this piezoelectric layer 23, along direction elongation perpendicular to its thickness direction, in contrast to this, lower electrode layer 22 and top electrode layer 24 are not extended, promptly under the effect of so-called bimetallic effect, piezoelectric-actuator 21 corresponding to that part of balancing gate pit 3 just toward a side convex curvature, the distortion opposite with balancing gate pit 3.
Then, after the 3rd waveform P3 was applied to piezoelectric-actuator 21, piezoelectric layer 23 shrank, that a part of a side convex curvature, distortion toward balancing gate pit 3 corresponding to balancing gate pit 3 of piezoelectric-actuator 21.Since this flexural deformation, generation pressure in balancing gate pit 3, under the effect of this pressure, the institute in the ink in the balancing gate pit 3 quantitatively is ejected into record-paper 51 with ink flow path 8 from nozzle 14 with spraying through above-mentioned jet 2b, and point-like is attached on the record-paper 51.
Then, after the 5th waveform P5 was applied to piezoelectric-actuator 21, piezoelectric layer 23 prolonged and that part corresponding to balancing gate pit 3 of piezoelectric-actuator 21 returns to original state.Applying the above-mentioned first and the 5th waveform P1, during P5,10 process supplies are filled in the balancing gate pit 3 with ink flow path 7 and supply port 2a ink from above-mentioned providing ink chamber.
Under certain substantially speed, when making ink gun H and balladeur train 31 end of 51 moving to the other end along main scanning direction from record-paper, under the output cycle of above-mentioned driving pulse P, repeat voltage waveform is imposed on piezoelectric-actuator 21 (still, ink gun H arrive ink droplet do not need to drop on the record-paper 51 local time, because the effect of above-mentioned drive IC 69 does not apply), like this ink droplet is dropped on institute's allocation of record-paper 51.After the record end of a scanning, the limit makes ink gun H and balladeur train 31 move the limit from injector head H injection ink droplet, the record that carries out a scanning again along main scanning direction again.By moving repeatedly, on whole record-paper 51, form desired image.
So, in the related driver of ink-jet head of above-mentioned the 1st example, because by with between among the maximum of the output voltage of a D/A converter 62 and the minimum of a value to be decided current potential V2 be that standard produces voltage and rises and falling waveform, so do not need such two the D/A executive components of existing circuit, and, do not export the power supply of negative voltage, as long as the power supply 66 of an output positive voltage is just passable.Can not produce available circuit like that because the waveform generation error that the characteristic between two D/A executive components poor (departure poor) is produced yet.Its result can seek the cost degradation and the miniaturization of circuit, can produce very stable voltage waveform simultaneously.So, can obtain at an easy rate not only small-sized but also low-cost, and the also very good ink-jet hair style tape deck of ink jet performance.
Fig. 6 shows the related driver of ink-jet head of the 2nd embodiment and (replenishes, the part identical with Fig. 3 added the symbol identical with Fig. 3, omitted its detailed description), between D/A converter 62 and waveform generation portion 64, be provided with analog switch 71 as switching device.
The 2nd example is provided with output and the above-mentioned constant voltage supply 72 of deciding the equal certain voltage of current potential V2, above-mentioned analog switch 71, because working signal from CPU61, under switching state, import the output voltage of above-mentioned D/A converter 62 and the output voltage of above-mentioned constant voltage supply 72, and make in these two output voltages any one output to waveform generating unit 64.Specifically, when waveform generation portion 64 does not produce any one waveform in voltage rising waveform and the falling waveform (because waveform generation portion 64, do not import the data signal in D/A converter 62 time that produces voltage rising waveform or falling waveform), the input of above-mentioned analog switch 71 is used as the output voltage (making analog switch 71 become the state shown in the solid line among Fig. 6) of constant voltage supply 72; When being imported into D/A converter 62 for the data signal that makes waveform generation portion 64 produce voltage rising waveform or falling waveform (when the data signal that from CPU6 1 will be maximum or minimum of a value with the output voltage is input to the D/A converter 62), the input of above-mentioned analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage (making analog switch 71 make the state shown in the double dot dash line Fig. 6) of D/A converter 62 from the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72.This imports switching, for the data signal that makes waveform generation portion 64 produce voltage rising waveform or falling waveform is transfused to, has determined that the output of D/A converter 62 is just carried out afterwards.
Replenish, D/A converter 62, by another terminal different with data signal and data stabilization signal, from CPU61 input and latch signal, the output state of aanalogvoltage is kept in the input of this latch signal.
Below, explanation produces the action of the related driver of ink-jet head of the 2nd example of above-mentioned first to the 5th waveform P1~P5 on Fig. 7.
Stage before waveform generation, the working signal (the Hi state among Fig. 7) that analog switch 71 is accepted from CPU61, make constant voltage supply 72 and waveform generation portion 64 be connection status, under this state, in waveform generation portion 64, imported the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72.Because it is equal that the output voltage of this constant voltage supply 72 and institute decide current potential V2, thus waveform generation portion 64, the same intermediate potential Vb that exports with above-mentioned the 1st example.
Then, from CPU61 output will be that the data signal of minimum of a value and data stabilization signal are to D/A converter 62 with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62, in D/A converter 62, determine its output in input through fix time back from this data stabilization signal, just export aanalogvoltage then.Replenish, keep this output state by above-mentioned latch signal.
Determined the output of D/A converter 62 and exported after the aanalogvoltage (from the input of data stabilization signal through the maximum of being longer than the data stabilization time a little after), the input of analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage of D/A converter 62 by the working signal (the Lo state among Fig. 7) from CPU61 from the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72.Like this, D/A converter 62 and waveform generation portion 64 become connection status, and above-mentioned aanalogvoltage is input to waveform generation portion 64, and its result is identical with above-mentioned the 1st example, and waveform generation portion produces, the output first waveform P1.Replenish, in this 2nd example, drive IC 69, substantially when the input of above-mentioned analog switch 71 is switched in, selected switching transistor corresponding to piezoelectric-actuator 21 is made as on-state, is maintained to and has produced the identical substantially moment of the 5th waveform P5.
After this, substantially when having produced the first waveform P1 in, the input of analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72 from the output voltage of D/A converter 62, like this, waveform generation portion 64 produces, the output second waveform P2.Replenish, substantially when the generation of the first waveform P1 finishes in or finish after, remove because the output state of the D/A converter 62 that latch signal is kept.
Then, from CPU61 output will be with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 peaked data signal and data stabilization signal to D/A converter 62, determined just to export aanalogvoltage after the output of D/A converter 62.Determined the output of D/A converter 62 and exported after the aanalogvoltage (from the input of data stabilization signal through the maximum of being longer than the data stabilization time a little after), the input of analog switch 71 just switches to the output voltage of D/A converter 62 from the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72.Like this, D/A converter 62 and waveform generation portion 64 become connection status, and above-mentioned aanalogvoltage is input to waveform generation portion 64, and waveform generation portion 64 produces, output the 3rd waveform P3.
After this, substantially when having produced the 3rd waveform P3 in, the input of analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72 from the output voltage of D/A converter 62, like this, waveform generation portion 64 produces, output the 4th waveform P4.
Then, from CPU61 output will be with the output voltage of this D/A converter 62 data signal of minimum of a value and data stabilization signal to D/A converter 62, determined just to export aanalogvoltage after the output of D/A converter 62.Determine the output of D/A converter 62 and exported after the aanalogvoltage (from the input of data stabilization signal through the maximum of being longer than the data stabilization time a little after), the input of analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage of D/A converter 62 from the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72.Like this, waveform generation portion 64 produces, exports the 5th waveform P5.
Then, in substantially when having produced the 5th waveform P5, the input of analog switch 71 switches to the output voltage of constant voltage supply 72 from the output voltage of D/A converter 62, like this, waveform generation portion 64 is producing the above-mentioned intermediate potential Vb of output between the driving pulse P next time.
Replenish, during that of the output voltage of analog switch 71 input constant voltage supplies 72, the output voltage of D/A converter 62 both can be by having been decided current potential V2 as above-mentioned the 1st example, can be other current potentials of earthing potential etc. again.
